4 FlexArm Limited Warranty A new FlexArm has a 3-year limited warranty on parts and labor. This warranty does not apply to a FlexArm determined to have been misused or abused, improperly maintained, or having defects attributed to the use of non-genuine repair parts. Original pressure cylinders have a one-year limited warranty from the date of purchase. When replacing a cylinder, make sure not to scratch, mar, or nick the shaft or tube on either the old cylinder being replaced or the new cylinder being installed. All warranty cylinders must be returned to FlexArm for evaluation. The warranty is void if the cylinder to be evaluated shows signs of scratches or nicks on the cylinder shaft or tube. Damaged cylinders cannot be returned to the manufacturer for warranty claims. Replacement cylinders carry a limited 1-year warranty from the date of purchase. Once the original warranty expires, repaired motors and arms carry a limited 60- day warranty from the date of the repair. Tap Holders are considered perishable tooling and therefore do not carry a warranty. However, size 2 through size 4 Tap Holders may be reworked depending on the severity of the damage or wear. Please contact FlexArm for a Return Authorization so the holders can be evaluated. The warranty is void if changes to the FlexArm or motor, or attempts to repair it or its components, are made without the expressed authorization of FlexArm, Inc. This warranty is based on normal usage, which is the equivalent of a 40-hour work week.
